Located just outside Gunnison, Colorado, our event is one to remember—fundraising has never been so beautiful and relaxing. Thanks to our fly fishing partners, we can access top-notch guides and breathtaking views of trout-rich waters!

Charity being supported by this event
Risers 4 Rett’s main purpose is to raise funds for the Rett Clinic at the Children's Hospital Colorado. The Clinic requires a minimum of $100,000/year to support Rett families. One of our top goals when establishing this Clinic was to provide a place where the doctors come to the patients, not vice versa. So Rett Families conveniently stay in one. Besides convenience, we also wanted to provide a variety of services, such as a multidisciplinary clinic. For one afternoon, we bring together up to 15 sub-specialty providers and therapists to provide a comprehensive evaluation for your child. Only a handful of Rett Clinics in the US and people from all over the world are coming to this Clinic. For more info, click here.
“The Rett Clinic was a well-oiled machine, where doctors, therapists, nutritionists, social workers and nurses gave suggestions on how to improve Tatum’s quality of life.”
